The Journey

Part 1
QR0625 Kuala Lumpur - Doha


Flight was pretty cool, I met this Geology graduate, she graduated from UKM, is going off to Abu Dhabi for training, then to Texas for more training, and then to Rio de Janeiro for work! How's that for a chance abroad! And I thought that local grads didnt have much of a shot when it comes to working abroad... Her name was Sheryl, and we chatted about almost everything under the sun i guess... And for once, no crying baby during the flight... Couldn't have asked for anything better =)

Part 2
QR0047 Doha-Geneva


Now the 2nd flight was pretty bad... It started off with me being displaced from my seat by some guy who wants his gf to sit with him instead, I was quite happy to because he was coughing loudly and kept knocking me with his arms... And the rest of the flight was attempts at sleeping, only remember waking up like 10 times, and this time a baby was involved... To boot I ended up sitting beside this kid who wouldn't listen to a damn thing his mother said and they were wrestling over his remote control half the flight... Bad bad bad flight... Left me all burnt out and exhausted...

Part 3
Geneva -Caux


For the 3rd leg, I hopped on to a local Swiss train from Geneva Airport and changing trains at Montreux, to take the train up to my school at Caux... The total journey time was about 1 hour to Montreux and 30 minutes to Caux... Nothing much happened, trying to sleep while blasting music via earphones at the same time(bad idea) Train to Caux was incredibly full... Bumped into 2 fellow co-workers from Indonesia, one of them speaks Mandarin and studied at Taylor's before! The world is indeed small...

Present

At the moment just chilling, already unpacked everything, kinda tired and starving but too exhausted and lazy to go out and get food... Oh well, tomorrow perhaps... Shall sign out for now folks... Thanks for reading!


The end of a voyage, the beginning of another journey.
C'est la vie. =)
